Comprehensive medical abstracts from early 20th-century surgery, with focus on tissue transplants and wound care. This 1914 supplement to International Abstract of Surgery collects observations on skin grafts, mucous membranes, and fat transplants, sharing practical insights and experimental results from leading surgeons of the era. It presents how different grafts behave in living tissue and under various conditions, highlighting the evolving science of graft survival and healing.

The pages summarize how transplant type and source influence success, including epidermal grafts, autoplastic versus homografts, and the limits of mucous membrane grafting. It also covers fat grafts and the fate of transplanted tissues in both clinical and animal studies, offering a snapshot of early debates and discoveries in surgical reconstruction.
